Only Love (사랑 하나죠)
This song is sung by SMTOWN artists in 2007 and the message is heartwarming. Basically, a small gesture of love makes other people happy because it gives them hope and appreciation. To be honest, when I watched the music video, I shed a few tears since this spread of love doesn't occur much or is not seen often in where I live. If possible, spend some time with your loved ones, appreciate them for their hard work and love for you, and bring their spirits up when they're feeling down or stressed.
VOODOO DOLL (저주인형)
This song is sung by VIXX (빅스) and the message is alarming but it does happen. DISCLAIMER: if you hate seeing blood, needles, and/or stabbing, I suggest just listening to the song and not the music video. To further explain, this song is related to toxic relationships and even though the video portrays the boyfriend's side, it can work for the girlfriend's side as well. The message is that the boyfriend/girlfriend is like a slave and sacrifices everything for their significant other to make them happy, hence why the song title is Voodoo Doll. Even if it hurts them, they can't do much about it since they're in their partner's hands. Like I said earlier, this is related to toxic relationships and my message to you is if you feel like your partner is controlling you and it's ruining your physical and mental health, try to escape the relationship to prevent any further damage.
WANNABE
This song is sung by ITZY (있지) and the message is related to who you are. You can have people tell you to not do this or that but you don't have to listen to them. If you don't like it, don't do it. It's none of their business and do what makes you happy, not what makes them happy. If they get upset because of what you did and it doesn't affect them, don't listen to them. Don't let the haters get in your way. Some things might not work the way you want them to work, but it's okay because it's life; no one is perfect.
Sorry (Dear. Daddy)
This song is sung by f(x) members Luna and Krystal (에프엑스 루나&크리스탈) and the song itself is a message to fathers. I can guarantee you'll shed some tears listening to the song and understand the lyrics because I know I did. The song is like an apology to our dads for not appreciating them enough and acting immature to them. They have sacrificed a lot of things for us and some of us don't even see it. In some cases, people realized what their dads did for them a tad too late so they're filled with regrets and sorrow. Remember to let your parents know that you appreciate them for making who you are now and it's never too late to say sorry for the wrongful things you have said to them.
I hope you guys took those messages into consideration and know these are real life scenarios, especially in today's world. Spend time with your family and friends, check up on them, and happy new years!
